April's Quote of the Month

Monday, December 29, 2008

Time to get with the times with technology, as my kids keep telling me. This will be my attempt to blog my life for the world to see. You will get to know my family, my favorites, my bucket list, and my heartfelt thoughts about life. I rang in the new year with all of my chicks in my nest. I probably had the loudest house on the circle when 2009 rang in. God bless Asher who slept through it all, and God bless Aidan who stayed up until 12:26 and was happy for most of it. We accomplished a steak dinner for 9, a roaring game of BINGO with prizes, and a cutthroat game of musical chairs for all. And just for fun we tossed in a few rounds of my choice of "poker" for lottery tickets. We ended the night with a toast of sparkling bubbly (grape juice), kisses, hugs, a few fireworks from Kaleb, and lots of love. Couldn't ask for a better way to bring in the new year. Here are a few highlights from our awesome evening.

Here is Tom making googly eyes with our grandaughter Asher.

About Me

Aged approximately 29ish mother of 3, grandmother of 2, retro hippy chick. My philosophy of life is the only thing you can take to Heaven is your family and friends and after God comes Mom. I am planning on having purple sparkle wings and a tie dye outfit in my after years. To sum all this up, I am a dreamer.

Pets-Zena and Zeus, my always faithful, always loving me best Golden Retrievers, my Westie Juno, the youngest 4 legged family member and the sassy pants of the family, last but not least, Daphne, my crazy cat who thinks she is a dog.
